Google on Thursday announced it is pausing its Gemini artificial intelligence image generation feature after saying it offers « inaccuracies » in historical pictures.
Users on social media had been complaining that the AI tool generates images of historical figures — like the U.S. Founding Fathers — as people of color, calling this inaccurate.
Google said in a post on X on Wednesday that the AI feature can « generate a wide range of people. And that’s generally a good thing because people around the world use it. » But it said that the software feature is « missing the mark here, » adding that the tech giant is « working to improve these kind of depictions immediately.
